Virginia Authors Unite to Sell Books and Support a Cancer Charity

Should you happen to be near Manassas, Virginia next week, there's a book sale you might be interested in.

Local bookseller McKay Used Books will be hosting a sale on Saturday, 30 July. Eight Virginia authors from Write by the Rails, the Prince William County chapter of the Virginia Writers Club,will be on hand to sign copies of their books for fans and sell them in support of cancer research.

“In the past year we’ve lost two of our members to various forms of cancer. Most recently we lost Robert F. Dorr, author of over 75 books on aviation and hundreds of articles," said organizer Victor Rook . "In October of 2015 we lost author Marvin Josaitis. Both attended last year’s group signing at McKay’s. We’ve also had several of our current members touched by cancer over the past few years.”
